Blog Income Report for February 2015

This is month two of me sharing my blog income report and I hope my January blog income report gave you some inspiration in regard to the different ways you can make money blogging.

My greatest goal in sharing these reports is to give you an idea of the kind of money you can make blogging.

February was a slow month for me because I was on bedrest for three weeks out of the month. Even with me being sick, I did pretty well in terms of actual income as well as generated income. Because I don’t want these reports to get super lengthy, I only share income I’ve actually been paid versus accounts receivable and revenue generated.

Shall we begin?

Goals

To start, my goal for February was to increase my pageviews. This is even more important for me than increasing income at the moment.

I ended January at just under 7,000 pageviews and this month I ended at a whopping 15,460!!

All of my blog and social media stats have increased from last month, so I am excited about that.

The biggest increase I have seen is with my Twitter followers. Since I started using Manage Flitter to kick my Twitter growth into overdrive my audience base has been growing. Everything I did to jumpstart my growth was from the ebook Grow Your Twitter for Bloggers. It’s the most comprehensive resource I’ve ever seen on the subject.

As you can see from the graph below, I started the month out at just under 700 Twitter followers and was up to 1809 by February 28th.

I gained 1130 engaged followers who are retweeting my content and interacting with others on Twitter all by using Manage Flitter and implementing the strategies from Grow Your Twitter for Bloggers.
By the end of 2015 here’s where I’d like my site statistics to be.

In March I will focus on creating Easter and Spring themed recipes, and tutorials that will be Pinterest friendly.

One thing I’ve learned is that I need to become even more focused on the planning side of my content and content marketing strategy. I see that I’m more focused and use my time more productively each month with a detailed written plan.

Income goal for March 2015: $3,000

I love being a digital content creator. I love branding and marketing. And I love being an entrepreneur. I also love helping others fine tune and monetize their brands. I love helping entrepreneurs map out plans for income and growth.

I’d love to work with some new entrepreneurs in 2016! Whether you need fresh pair of eyes and some guidance in your business plan, thoughts on how to make your brand more appealing to PR reps or ideas on methods of monetization. I can help.

Check out the packages I have available or email me and we can brainstorm customized package for your brand.

I am so inspired by these numbers. I have just had my blog for 30 days and am trying to figure out how to make money. I think I am too new to get any ads and no one is clicking on my Amazon affiliate links. I will keep persevering though!

I have been blogging sporadically for years, but have only made $25 with AdSense and only have about 50 followers. I would like to grow my audience and begin somewhat of a supplemental income – what would your suggestion be as to the first step to take, who to sign up with, etc.?

Saidah, this is awesome! I use ManageFlitter too and I love it, it does a great job at finding the right people to follow and unfollow. Also, your affiliate earnings are crazy! Do you have a systemized way for keeping track of all your affiliate links?

Wait. This is so cool. We're currently at similar levels stats wise, and I'm now COMPLETELY inspired by your report! I'd love to chat with you more in depth about it if you'd be game, because now I am so motivated!

Congrats on your progress! I have been blogging mainly to support my service business but since the beginning of the year am transitioning into more affiliate and brand work. This is inspiring to see and tracking is a great way to grow ! What we measure grows. I plan to incorporate this info my monthly posts as well.

This was so impressive and informative for me. My numbers are slightly above yours, but I didn't think I had enough to make money off blogging yet. Well, you proved me wrong!!! Can't wait to look closer at how you have accomplished this!

This is impressive! Congrats! I signed up for amazon affiliate but have not used it. And I got rid of google Adsense on my site since I wasn't making any money. I need more time in a day to write, post, do social networking AND also monetize!

I find this information so interesting. I have more traffic and followers but I am making less money! It's always interesting to see how each blogger's numbers pan out. Definitely going to reference this later. Congratulations on your success and good luck!

Teach me your ways! haha I have similar stats, but I have only just started trying to monetize my blog. I've started with sponsored posts, but have just started looking into affiliates. Who is your favorite to work with?

This is really inspiring to me! I've only been blogging a few months, so I'm just starting to do sponsored posts. You did great, especially for being unable to do much blogging for most of the month. Thanks for the motivation!
